Whether you are looking to join SLAY just for Black Desert Online, or because you want to join SLAY for more than just Black Desert Online, than you will be welcomed into our community. Although we consider ourselves a semi-hardcore guild it does not mean we do not welcome people with all play times. We know players have real life (Well some of our guys dont...), but on a serious note we have people here with full time jobs, no jobs, husbands, wifes, ect and they are still valued members of the SLAY community. TeamSpeak is a mandatory requirement for all members of SLAY as communication is so vital in games plus we like to get to know our members of the community and have a laugh!

Officers contactable via in game: Kellogz / Yautja / Daan3287 / Brute----------------------------------------------------Thankyou for taking the time to read the above, see you in game!----------------------------------------------------Some Slay Community Videos from all games:

Greetings everyone! We thank you for taking the time to consider us for your home. We'll start with what we're looking for.Must Haves:18+We're not total perverts nor do we talk like sailors, but would like to be able to talk freely and sometimes get a little silly or occasionally go off on innuendo-infused tangents of hilarious proportions.PvE We enjoy exploring, leveling, and whatever else in-between that comes with the expansive content of this game.RP/RoleplayWhile we might not participate right away, we hope to get into it (in my case, back into it) over time as we get to know people.Close-knit/Family-like Atmosphere We don't want to feel like just another face in the crowd. We're looking to build some lasting friendships that may even go beyond the game setting. Regular grouping up for game contentWe feel that the best way to get to know people is to spend time with them and share adventures.Have guild chat as the primary means of communication/OOC chattingWe're not opposed to using a voice chat program such as TeamSpeak3 or Discord for some situations, but it's not something we like to be on at all times in order to chat and get to know everyone.Bonus Features: Things that aren't deal breakers if they don't happen yet, but are on the list of things to build toward.Regular Dailies/Boss Scrolls, etcWe like shinies.Guild MissionsWe enjoy being able to contribute and feel like our contributions matter, along with feeling that sense of accomplishment when completing a challenge together. Now that that's out of the way, a little about us.My family name is Silverfyre, and my partner-in-crime is Dyne. We generally spend most of our time on Calpheon 2. I have a lvl 50 Tamer (Michiroko) and Maehwa (Linwei_Chinatsu), and a little lvl 27 ranger (Aria_Silverfyre) on her way up. Dyne has a lvl 50 Warrior and a couple others on their way up. We're not in any rush to get to 60, nor are we fans of PvP. In time, we might be persuaded for a friendly duel between friends, but that's probably as far as we'll go.In regards to RP, I've been doing it since back in the days of AOL Chatrooms (whoops, showing my age now). and then got my taste for in-game RP when I started playing Guild Wars 1. Forum RP came with that, and I enjoyed it immensely as well. I've been dealing with a serious case of Writer's Block for quite some time and hope to find a way to break through it. Dyne is newer to the RP scene. We both hope to find somewhere with a patient community that's willing to guide us and help us ease into it.

This got a little longer than expected. Thank you for reading this far. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us in-game or leave a note here.Happy hunting!

How long? How long are we, as a people, going to be robbed? I don’t mean our possessions, our things or homes. I’m talking about our culture! Our soul as a people! For too long have we been robbed of our past by those seeking to profit from it. To use it to exploit others and deny us a piece of ourselves, and possibly the answers we seek. Not just what we want to know, but we need to know! Our past helps to shape our future, and I ask you, what sort of future do we have if we don’t even know that past? My organization seeks to conduct archeological investigations. The difference being what we find will be shared. We will not look to profit and the dangers we face will not befall others. Wherever it takes us. We swear allegiance to no country or religion, we operate without borders and while we’ll respect the territory we’re in we are independent of them. I’m looking for people to join us in our work. Researchers, archeologists, protectors and workers. You’ll be paid and if you desire an education in some field or another we can provide, we will teach you. No matter how basic or advanced if it’s within our power to do so. Your station in life doesn’t matter and determines nothing, it’s your abilities and your character that are important. Seek me out or leave a message in Heidal at my office, street nine, house three. Together, let us take back what we’ve lost.Mission Statement

Study ruins of the ancients, decode their languages.Learn the origins of the Black Spirits and their purpose, if any.Discover the correlation between them and the black stone, and possibly black magic if any.How did the ancients deal with the above?Sub Goals

Investigate occurrences of possession and magical corruption.Develop more efficient ways to combat creatures such as undead and safely exorcising the possessed. We are not an order of inquisitors or knights, nor swear allegiance to any specific nation or faith. This is an independent organization. Any like-minded person will be welcome with the intention of developing a wide skill base within the organization. One must be willing to work with others of various backgrounds and skill sets.

Hey everybody,This guild is about having fun and stretching your creative legs! We want people to be comfortable, get everyone involved (no matter how shy or loud you may be), and to grow together. Its one thing to roleplay together, but as you probably know, its even better when you feel like you can talk freely and goof off in guild chat. We'll be exploring serious themes and have regular serious plots going, but don't make the mistake of thinking we're as serious as all of that. We are 18+ though, just incase. Things we'll do:Weekly GM'd plots where we paint images, play npcs, narrate and work with whatever our people's characters throw at us to see where those plots go!Run plots and mini plots involving relics and other (roleplaying) resourcesHorse races (Crawl races too?)Run a plot involving your character's background (which is best if you agree to play an npc for someone else's plot)Group up and do pve challenges (like no armor or use unenchanted weapons or box an elite troll to death)We have experience with:

Decades of roleplaying experience, both from tabletop game systems and from mmosRunning RP, PvE, and PvP guilds in mmos from EQ 1+2, to Warcraft, Aion, to GW2 (and many more)Community management - we're level headed and can handle conflictEating tacos and sharing cookies (that second one is pretty hard, but we made it)Art and artists: we love art, both making and exploring, and we're totally onboard to do commissions for events or occasional rewardsWriting and literature - We're roleplayers, duh! We do a lot of writing and some editing outside of our RP We're looking for potential members who are or want to get creative, are easy-going, respectful of all people, and people who want to build a community and interact with others. If this fits you and you want to offer yourself and your roleplaying to a group of people who will gladly welcome you, come on!PM me here or on Enjin at Ravrohan, or my in game character name Basir, family name Kinsaeda or Einkasur (family name) for any questions, meetings or sign ups!

BloodLotusOrwen Server18 years of age or older only requirement------------------------------------------------------------------------Does this guild do PvP?Yes, but we are currently focusing on guild upbringing so as not to flop like so many new guilds tend to end up doingHow about PvE?Who doesn't? A very easy question to ask, yes we do LOTS of PvE related things; Guild quests and summon scrolls included of course!Can we roleplay here?"NO! Absolutely no filthy casual RPer's here!" is what I would say if I was a stale, boring person. The guild is open to ideas but we are mainly PvE/PvP focused for now.Any requirements to get in?The only one would be an age requirement. I like cursing and having an adult sense of humor.. I'd like to keep it that way ty (I have one hell of a sailor's mouth.. so do my officers)You guys use any voice chat?Yes we use teamspeak 3 (IP is paradigm.ts.nfoservers.com) and are also looking to possibly expand or switch to Discord.◄We are officially using discord! https://discord.gg/014FiplWHnmBoaUos Come visit us!☺ ►Leaders? Hours of play?Aside from myself (Khaos_Incarnate is my family name), I have 3 officers: AlittleMangoMiniMango, TiniestMangoTeersYfandasOsulivanDeammon, AsterodiaWe have players who play morning till night and those who play night till early morning. All hours of the day are covered.

Interested?Hit me or any of my officers up in game. Also, a very effective and well-known way to let us know you are interested is by posting a comment. Have a good one and see ya in game!

<BloodLotus>18+PVE/ PVP/ Roleplay--------------------------------History?: None yet, this is a brand-spankin'-new guild baby!Purpose: To have fun with this game doing whatever it is that makes you happy! We're here for you all. Climbing the leaderboards is definitely something I aspire to do, how about you?Leader: Khaos_Incarnate (Family name). Characters: Deity_Khaos and Oniyami (Mainly on this one)Teamspeak:paradigm.ts.nfoservers.com--------------------------Right off the bat, I know exactly what you're thinking: Brand new guild? No positives to think of? NOT EVEN AN ICON, PICTURE OR NICE DESIGN FOR THE GUILD NAME? (Coming soon to a forum post near you!). Well, if you're still here then obviously you are interested! First off, I wanna start by saying welcome to the preliminary round where I talk about exactly what it is you are looking for in a guild and what we are looking for in this guild's members! "But Grim," (Hi, my name is Grim by the way) you ask scratching your head in curiosity, "If you know what it is we want in a guild, then can you even provide it?" Well that's not entirely up to me; you see, a guild is a community. A community in which everyone of its members contributes something to improve their standing-points and help each other reach higher peaks. What you are looking for is just that! As far as I am concerned, we are all still new to this game. That being said.. not all of us know exactly what it is we want and that's fine! "Ok! So what are you looking for in your members?" you ask bewilderingly. Well everyone says they want loyal members radaradarada and, while that's true, it's not really the point here. We want people who can have fun with this game, who love to socialize with their fellow members making friends, building trust and improving everyone's experience. That being said, no dickheads! b_bTL;DR?I'm sure you've all gotten to the point where you're muttering "Oi! Get on with it, then!" not so fast though , bruv! Papa's gotta lay down some ground rules and such! So, without further ado... here's a typical list of RULES: Now that we've got all that out of the way you can do one of 5 things: 1. Tab back into the game and shoot me or one of my officers a private message as we are, in fact, recruiting in-game(More information as well as Officer names further down see spoilers to reveal) , 2. Leave and flip me the bird, 3. Respond to this forum post, another good way to get my attention (I'll be checking it daily... hourly.. forever lurking!!), 4. Read inside the spoiler text for further information (Oh goody!), 5. Recommend your friends to this guild!Officers Timezones-------------------------------------------------If you need any further information on, say, what my history as a guild leader is, how many members we currently have, where my idea for a name came from, or even what color underwear I am wearing (Idk) feel free to ask! Any feedback/suggestions to help improve anything including this forum post, guild rules, or maybe you want to use a different voice program? Anything! Submit it all down below! Do somethin for me, will ya? Stay safe out there you beautiful lil devils!

Blackstar is a guild that started in the Elder Scrolls Online. It is and was an RP guild that took pride in the fact that not anyone could get in. Players had to be respectful of RP etiquette, each other, and provide quality RP. The guild leaders took time to provide in depth story arcs that made sure to involve its members and the community. During that time, the guild came across another guild (mine) known as the "Irongut Raiders". Myself and the other guild leader decided to form a marriage of the guilds to form "Blackstar Raiders". During the aforementioned marriage of guilds, server wide roleplay events unfolded, in which BSR spearheaded and or took part in involving hundreds of players and dozens of guilds at a time. We hope to do just the same in Black Desert Online. In the creation of BDO, since letter limit became an issue, both myself and the other guild leader decided to roll back and use "Blackstar". as the guild name. Now down to what we are. Blackstar is a mercenary guild, plain and simple. We take contracts from other players, merchants, etc. Be it assassinations, bodyguards or kidnapping (we have a strict policy against kidnapping children for ransom). Out of character, we apply good grammar, punctuation and adhere to the rules of RP in the community to the best of our abilities. If you're a person who takes pride in what you do for RP, and wish to be a mercenary, then feel free to go to the Guild Blackstar Homepage and apply!

“In the final days, shadows will move into the light, and from darkness a plague will be carried to the ends of the world by the four winds.”

Tome of Whispers and Echoes - Chapter 13: The Unseen Prophecy

Today started out like any other day you've had over the past year. You still look at your left palm every morning when you wake out of habit. You don't even notice you doing it these days. You get up and get ready to go about your day as you're now accustomed to.Then, in the middle of the day your worst fears (or joys) are realized. Your hand tingles. You slowly turn your hand to see The Brand: an invisible, mana-infused tattoo only visible when The Unseen Hand has need of you. Its design and the hue it gives off are connected to members of The Unseen Hand you must answer to.You look up and around, trying to catch a glimpse of them. You know they are watching you. They're always watching….

Eternus is a roleplay guild unlike any other. More than just roleplay, we consider ourselves a storytelling guild. We have rich and engaging characters and stories that make up our roster. We're one community united like a family! Under the leadership of our Community Leader ((OOC)) and The Shadō ((IC)) we have a flourishing narrative that weaves in the characters of our members. From merchants to criminals, soldiers to mercenaries, powerful leaders to regular citizens, nothing is beyond the reach of The Unseen Hand. Our goal is to tell epic and everyday tales of an ensemble cast made up by our members. Come, join the story!

To join Eternus, one must submit their character to the will of The Unseen Hand. Each character carries with them a brand on their left palm. This provides both a source of communication and a level of control. Be sure to check out our website and read our Code of Conduct before applying to the guild.Community Manager: ToxaBlack Desert Branch Leader: ZasonBlack Desert Officers: Aeternita, Laukus, and Aelwyn

RANKSThe Unseen HandThe Shadō - The enigmatic leader(s) and final decision maker(s). ((BDO Branch Leader))Anemoi - An extension of the will of The Shadō. They enact The Shadō’s plans while having freedom on how they do it. They are able to have their own projects so long as they do not conflict with one another. ((Officers))Faceless - Trusted by the Anemoi, they deliver orders or missions to The Branded and act as a general go-between. ((Veteran Members))The Branded - Those tied to The Unseen Hand are marked with a brand and have submitted themselves (willingly or unwillingly) to the will of The Shadō. ((Veteran Members)) Associates - Those just coming into contact with The Unseen Hand and not yet branded. Characters become Associates usually by coming into regular contact with The Branded. They have yet to prove themselves to become truly weaved into the ongoing narrative… for now. ((New Members))

Q&AA Storytelling Guild?The concept came out of the idea of having a dynamic "Storytelling" guild that has a place for all kinds of character types. Peasants and Warriors. Merchants and Criminals. The glue that connects these various types and compels the story forward is The Unseen Hand (think Dungeon Master). As the story unfolds, any character could rise or fall, even the Anemoi could be exposed and The Unseen Hand destroyed. Major shifts such as this would be highly unlikely but not impossible. So, the version of Eternus you may join today might evolve into something completely different in the future with what the characters bring to the story.So, there’s a difference between a “Storytelling Guild” and an “RP Guild”?Absolutely! Your standard RP guild provides a theme and basic story and usually lets the characters do what they please. The members usually focus on their individual stories or small group tales. These are great, but we wanted to try something different. As a storytelling guild we focus on an overarching narrative that is told through an ensemble of characters. Based on how the characters are connected, they may be placed in situations they would not normally put themselves in. The Unseen Hand may send them on a mission or compel them to do something that they disagree with. How they complete said task is still up to them but they must obey. With that said, our goal is not to ruin the fun for anyone and to offer a variety of RP opportunities connected to an ongoing story. Any seriously dark or permanent consequences are usually brought up beforehand and there are consequences for IC actions.What’s this about a brand?The Brand is a way to mark those who belong to The Unseen Hand. It’s a magically infused tattoo on the left palm, invisible to the naked eye. When magic is focused through the circuits, it appears with the color associated with which Anemoi they are bound to. These brands can be activated by anyone who is marked with a controlling brand (The Anemoi and The Shadō). The brand will tingle when near other branded individuals. Those branded are strongly compelled to obey and keep anything they know about The Unseen Hand to themselves.What kind of theme is the guild?Eternus is a mature (18+) guild. Our theme in BDO is dark but not specifically evil. We will exist more in the morally gray area. Goody two shoes and evil bastards are more fringe than the norm.How do I increase my rank?To go from Associate ((New Member)) to The Branded ((Veteran Member)) you must show that you are invested in Eternus and the ongoing narrative by being active and contributing to roleplay on a regular basis. While we understand that RL takes priority we do expect activity. Other ranks will be hand chosen and as needed. To say it another way, advancement requires both IC and OOC involvement and activity.What is this “Tome”?The Tome of Whispers and Echoes is a large book containing all of the secrets of The Unseen Hand. Its pages are inscribed with the same ink used in The Brand, and its pages have been scattered across the continent. This will play as a basis for guild missions (to give IC reasons for OOC tasks), and gradually reveal more in-depth information about The Unseen Hand and guild lore.What if I don’t wanna obey?In Character actions have In Character consequences. Disobeying The Unseen Hand is not to be taken lightly and punishments can be severe. Since we are focused on weaving an exciting narrative, we expect all members to understand and agree that they must contribute to the overall narrative. Basically, if you are always trying to disobey, you’re ruining the story and experience for everyone else. You will be warned but if negative actions continue, there may be serious IC and OOC consequences. That said, we want to create an environment where all member, characters and their personal stories can flow into each other and allow for exciting adventures and fun.Can I be a part of RP events or do content with Eternus without joining?From time to time we will do events with other guilds and definitely seek to roleplay with others in the community however when we do content or storytelling it will primarily be with guild members only. It isn’t a matter of elitism, more of an issue of putting our members first and focusing our time and resources to advance the guild and weave an epic tale with a regular cast of characters.This all sounds interesting. How do I know if it’s something for me?If you’ve ever enjoyed playing D&D with a Dungeon Master, love having your characters challenged in unexpected ways, thrilled with the “gray areas” of a character’s life and decisions, excited about participating in an ensemble cast in an epic ongoing narrative, bringing YOUR character’s story together with others’ to create a unique story, then we have a place for you!
